NetSuite, a on-demand enterprise resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship managing (CRM) service has announced the results of a recent independent sustainability impact study done by Greenspace. According to the results “by vastly reducing the need for servers and support equipment, such as server room air conditioning, Greenspace found the average NetSuite customer can cut its electricity bill by more than $10,000 per year.” When this is applied to the overall costs of hardware, software licenses, maintenance, personnel and occupancy, NetSuite adds, “the cost reductions can exceed $100,000 per year, per customer.”

Greenspace used their EcoMetrics scorecard to review the NetSuite platform, finding “tremendous incremental benefits.” It not only identified significant energy savings opportunities, but revealed green benefits including e-waste reduction, paper use reduction and increased employment productivity.

In an ongoing effort to enable the “green economy,” NetSuite features a first-year 50% discount on the company’s full on-demand business suite by recognizing progressive-minded organizations that want to move their key business computing resources to NetSuite’s energy-efficient cloud computing infrastructure. Current NetSuite customers signing up under the promotion will receive a 10% renewal price cap for subsequent years.

Greenspace determined that NetSuite’s shared SaaS architecture in 2008 saved its customers more than $61 million in energy bills.
